MARK HINE DIGITAL MEDIA COORDINATOR Information Technology Services SCREENR
The Presentation • Use logical transitions (dissolves or cuts) • Transitions are how you move from slide to slide. • Limit crazy animations unless their effect is absolutely necessary. • Animations are how text and objects move on each slide. • Check SPEELLLIINNG and GRANMAR • Nothing decreases credibility like the above.
The Presentation • Draw focus with your ideas, objects, photos and color scheme. Ask, where does your eye go on the page? • Use white space to separate ideas. • Soft lines and subtle gradients make nice backgrounds but not nice objects. • Explore Kuler.com for color themes.
Fonts • Sans- Serif : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Impact • Serif: Times Roman, Garamond, Caslon • Size shows relative importance of concept • Minimum 28 pt (this is 32 point) • Proper color contrast. This is readable. • This is not readable.
Objects • Photos should be large to begin with and then resize smaller in PowerPoint. • Best not to use .gifs. Use PNG and JPG. PIXELATED
Audio Recording • When using a USB microphone, plug it in to your computer prior to starting Screenr. • The mic should be 4 to 5 inches from your mouth. • Back off the P’s and S’s for best sound quality. • Practice. Practice. Practice.
Audio Recording – Vu Meter • The Vu meter in Screenr detects your volume and is a gauge of loudness. GOOD LEVEL DISTORTION PROBABLE
